Are You Ready Boots? Start Walking!



I've been on a Nancy Sinatra kick for the past couple of days. Over the weekend I picked up Nancy In London (which is now gracing my living room wall) and How Does That Grab You? at the Austin Record Convention. I now own all of her albums from the 1960s. Here's the classic video for her hit single These Boots Are Made For Walkin'  to start the week off right:



PS: I'm looking for a copy of the Movin' With Nancy television special on DVD. If you can offer assistance, please drop me a line.

Jayne Mansfield - That Makes It! (1966)



I won't lie to you, The Las Vegas Hillbillys (1966) is a horrendous film. (And not even in a so bad it's good kind of way.) Nevertheless, I just adore this song! You'll be thanking me later when it gets stuck in your head for days on end! :)

Jayne Mansfield For President (1964)


Jayne Mansfield's spoof on the 1964 Presidential Election. This one is a personal favorite from my collection. Best magazine idea ever?! I think so! Delightfully campy from front to back cover!

Jayne possessed a genius for PR. Did you know that she was the most publicized woman in the world for a period in the late 1950s?

Funny, yet true: Following the release of Jayne Mansfield For President, many people honestly thought that JM was serious running for office!

She'd get my vote any day! Glamour a-go-go hearts Jayne Mansfield!!!
